Use the 1020 driver, but turn off bidirectional support, to avoid a page job printing repeatedly.

From http://www.kindleboards.com/index.php/topic,25545.0.html Solution – Reset the Furthest Page Read Use the same device for all of the steps below before opening the book on a different one, the below example is using a single Kindle 1. Set the Synchronization off on your Amazon Account (Go to Amazon -> Your Account -> Manage Your Kindle -> Manage Kindle Device Synchronization -> click the “Turn the Synchronization off” button to turn off the synchronization) 2. Wait about a minute, then exit & re-enter your book 3. Go to the beginning of your book on the Kindle 4. Sync to the furthest page. If it tells you that you’re on the furthest location, you’re good to go. 1. If not, select Cancel on the sync message, exit and re-enter the book to attempt the reset again. (I think that the Amazon databases have to get reset-thus the delay; in any case, it always works for me on the 2nd attempt) 5. Turn on the synchronization setting on your Account – your Furthest Page read will be reset to your new location. 6. On your other devices–if further along in the book, you will have to go to the beginning of the book, but once done the Furthest Page Read location will sync with your Kindle.

C-50 Ontario processor is 64-bit, so we’ll use the 64 bit image: ubuntu-11.04-desktop-amd64.iso installed image onto USB stick using: ‘sudo usb-creator-gtk’ command make sure BIOS is configured to read from USB stick before HDD note: ubuntu kept hanging on me (mouse cursor/throbber frozen)… from posts on Net I suspect it is due to wireless driver solution: install with wired connection plugged in; this allowed me to do install no problem this link sounds relevant: http://fossplanet.com/f10/[bug-775034]-[new]-natty-freezes-due-acer-aspire-one-522-wireless-148584/ suspend and hibernate work right out of the box with this (tested both) clicking on Additional Drivers in top bar, it seems we are already using Broadcom STA wireless driver (hence could conflict with other one) now able to use wifi (w/o wired plugged in) using following: add in /etc/modprobe.d/blacklist.conf this line: “blacklist atl1c” “sudo update-initramfs -u” suspend still works outstanding issues: (non-proprietary) video driver has poor YouTube playback, etc. after resume (from Suspend?) the Ubuntu top and left bars stop updating visually (Ubuntu One compiz component; switch to “Ubuntu Classic” in GDM and all is well) attempting ATI/AMD proprietary FGLRX gfx driver install… resume from suspend no longer working… can’t even ping the machine (but did not check earlier that I actually could) went back to non-proprietary video drivers

From: http://www.thank-you-note-samples.com/how-to-write-a-thank.html Here’s how to get started: Dear [Name of person]. If “Dear” sounds too formal to you and you know the person well, you can get away with “Hi”, as in “Hi Michelle!” Thank you for the [description of gift] [name of gift].Example: Thank you for the fuzzy brown scarf. At least one sentence about the item; something you did with it, a reason you like it, when you plan to use it. Ideally, make the sentence 2 parts, like the example below. This makes the note feel more sincere.Example: It matches many of my clothes and I know I’ll use it on my trip to Iceland. Tell the giver you appreciate the thought or time they put into it and the occasion for which the gift was given.Example: It was so thoughtful of you to think of me on my birthday. Mention something about the giver such as family members or something happening in their lives.Example: Best wishes to Tom and the kids. OR Have a great time in Maine next month. I look forward to hearing about it! Sign off. “Love” is fine for family members and close friends. For others, some choices are “Yours Truly”, “Regards”, or “Warm Regards”. Sign your name. Don’t make this an autograph scrawl; neaten it up so you they know it’s you.

http://forums.linksysbycisco.com/linksys/board/message?board.id=Access_Points&thread.id=11089 The above forum thread discusses how to setup multiple routers at home. In particular, the thread is by someone in a similar situation to my own, where the cable modem comes with a wireless router already, which are setup in the basement, and wants to add a second router on second floor of house for better connectivity. The solution:

According to: http://www.thewritingdesk.co.uk/reference.php?id=5 NP (needlepoint). A very small point to give an extremely fine line. Sometimes referred to as XXF or EEF (extra-extra-fine). EF (extra-fine). A nib that will give a line width of around 0.4mm. Suitable for those with very small writing. F (fine). A nib that will give a line width of around 0.6mm. Suitable for those with small writing. M (medium). A nib that will give a line width of around 0.8mm. Suitable for those with average-size handwriting. B (broad or bold). A nib that will give a line width of around 1.0mm. Suitable for those with large writing or for signatures. BB (extra-broad). A nib that will give a line width of around 1.2mm. Suitable for those with very large writing or for signatures. BBB or 3B (extra-extra-broad). A nib that will give a line width of around 1.4mm. Will give large flowing lines and usually good variation between down-strokes (wide) and side-strokes (less wide). OM, OB etc (oblique). A nib ground so that the tip slopes to the left, rather like your left foot. Designed for those writers that either rotate the pen anti-clockwise or hold the pen at an unusual angle. Note that oblique nibs do not normally give more line variation than a standard rounded point unless specifically stated otherwise. ROM (reverse-oblique medium etc). A nib ground so that it slopes to the right, rather like your right foot. Sometimes suitable for left-handed people. Sometimes confusingly called right oblique. Uncommon. LH (left-hand, eg Pelikano and Lamy). A medium nib but with the point shaped so that it may be more suited to left-handed writers, particularly those who hold their above the line of writing (“over-writers”). MK (rounded medium). A special nib made by Lamy with a more rounded point such that the orientation of the pen relative to the paper is less critical than a standard point and therefore easier for beginners. The designation is no longer used but the current Lamy medium nib is made to the same specification as the MK. A. A rounded point made by Lamy for the abc school pen. Between fine and medium. Italic (eg IM, IB, 1.1mm 1.5mm etc). A nib ground so that the tip is flat instead of rounded. Designed to give extreme line variation between wide down-strokes and narrow side-strokes in the manner of a calligraphy pen. Often specified in terms of width (in mm). Most factory-produced italic nibs are actually stub- or cursive-italics meaning the corners of the nib are rounded so allow continuous writing unlike a proper calligraphy nib that requires much greater care. Stub. A more rounded, gentle version of an italic nib such that good line variation is produced. Like italic nibs, these are usually specified in terms of width (in mm). Less demanding in terms of angle to the page than an italic or stub-italic nib.
